Two Arkansas men are accused taking turns in a bulletproof vest and shooting each other.
Charles Eugene Ferris, 50, was on his back deck drinking with his neighbor, Christopher Hicks, 36, on Sunday when the incident happened, according to a police repor
Ferris was wearing a bulletproof vest and told Hicks to shoot him with the vest on.
Hicks shot Ferris in the chest one time with a .22-caliber semi-automatic rifle, according to the report.
The bullet hit Ferris in the top left corner of his chest, and the vest stopped the bullet. The shot still hurt Ferris and left him with a red mark on the chest.
Ferris then took the vest off and Hicks put it on.
Ferris was angry about getting shot and how much it hurt, so he "unloaded the clip into Christopher's back," according to the report.
Ferris went to a local hospital, and staff members there notified law enforcement.
Ferris initially told deputies a story about being paid $200 to protect an "asset" and that he was shot guarding the "asset" from a man wearing a white suit near a bicycle and walking trail.
Ferris later told deputies about drinking with Hicks and how they shot each other with bulletproof vests on after deputies spoke with Ferris' wife.
Both Ferris and Hicks were arrested on suspicion of aggravated assault. A court hearing is planned for May 13.
